Re: Pop or as movies

Other than wanting to try something different and stay at another resort there's no reason to switch.

Re: Pop or as movies

We have stayed at both resorts and like POP better. Although, as DisneyTeacher mentioned, if you are looking for something different give ASM a try. Both kids (8 and 4 at the time we stayed at ASM) enjoyed and could better relate to the larger than life icons at ASM.

Re: Pop or as movies

No....one reason why. BUS SERVICE!

Keep in mind that POP has it's own bus service going directly to/from there whereas ASM is the LAST stop in the AS section and the busses are usually filled or wait time is longer.

Re: Pop or as movies

The only reason to go to Movies is if you are looking to try another resort. If that's not the case, stay at Pop where you know you like it. I am a firm believer is sticking with what you know you will enjoy.

Re: Pop or as movies

I agree, stay with Pop. The fact that they have their own bus is a major bonus for me.

Re: Pop or as movies

Ok,Ok...you guys are making me nervous now. We decided this year to get two ajoining rooms instead of staying at a moderate for more space. We chose ASM....why is everyone saying not to stay there? It's not bad right?

No, it's definately not bad! When I used to stay value as a florida resident we'd always choose ASM. I just prefer Pop because it doesn't share buses, it's newer, and I personally think the food court is better. Although, there is nothing wrong with ASM, the only value that I think is terrible is All Star Sports but that's just my opinion.

Definitely stay with Pop. One bus stop is a great thing.

I dont have any kids, so I havent stayed at either, but they do look pretty fun. I like the gigantic themed decorations they use at all of them.
